Some of the most delicious Italian and Italian American food I’ve had in a long time. Chicken Parm is literally the best I’ve ever had. The carpaccio was outstanding. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Ambiance was great, service outstanding, the chef may not use salt so there was a little something missing from the taste. All in all we would definitely return!

Hostess wasn’t very friendly Ambiance was very nice Food was excellent! Very tasty and good size portions! Service was poor after our dinner dishes were cleared. Waiter never came back to ask if we were interested in coffee or dessert. After 35 minutes we decided to get the attention of the staff member clearing other tables. We told them that our waiter never came back to offer us coffee or dessert. There was no apology from any staff member. We asked for check, paid the bill, and left. Very disappointed in the service. Will think twice about returning.
